Synopsis "Halwai (in Maratí)"
THE APPLE OF HIS EYE IS HIS SON MALI, FOR WHOM HE FEELS A DEEP BUT ABSURDLY EMBARRASSED AFFECTION, WHICH APPEARS TO GO UNREQUITED. WHEN MALI COOLLY ANNOUNCES THAT HE IS ABANDONING SCHOOL TO GO TO AMERICA TO BECOME A WRITER, JAGAN`S FATHERLY FEELINGS ARE THROWN INTO STILL GREATER CONFUSION. AND WHEN, A YEAR OR TWO LATER, MALI RETURNS WITH A HALF-KOREAN, HALF-AMERICAN WIFE AND A GRANDIOSE SCHEME FOR MARKETING A NOVEL-WRITING MACHINE, JAGAN IS UTTERLY AT SEA. HE IS CONFRONTED BY THE NEW WORLD SHOCKINGLY PERSONIFIED - A WORLD WHERE HIS CHERISHED NOTIONS OF MARRIAGE AND MORALS SEEM TO COUNT FOR NOTHING. THE TRAGICOMIC CLASH OF THE GENERATIONS DEEPENS WITH EVERY CHAPTER. JAGAN`S FINAL ESCAPE FROM THE GALLING CHAINS OF PATERNAL LOVE COMES AS UNEXPECTEDLY AS EVERY OTHER TWIST IN THIS DELICIOUS STORY.
